Gimme 5 from 2003-11

This Q&A session was originally posted at the now-defunct IanStorm.com .

IanStorm	Will Paladins get any new spells like Night sight or gate?
Evocare	While we’re not expecting to add new abilities in our regular publishes over the next couple months, I wouldn’t rule them out as content additions for the future. We’re very interested in adding new abilities to the major skills over the long run, to ensure those skills stay interesting and well-rounded.
IanStorm	Could Wind be opened up to Paladins and Necromancers with 70+ skill, rather than just mages?
Evocare	Hmm, I haven’t really given this much thought to be honest. While I’m not immediately opposed to the idea, I don’t see any *really* compelling reasons to do it offhand. Perhaps you can offer your arguments as to why you think this should be done. ;]
IanStorm	Why is it that Necromancer familiars, when attacking an aggressor to the Necromancer, flag criminal, and if the aggressor is killed, are able to give a murder count to the Necromancer?
Evocare	It’s a bug that is scheduled to be fixed in an upcoming publish.
IanStorm	Stealing bugs... What is going to be done about these? (Ex: Over 100.0 stealing, you're attempts are always noticed, never avoided)
Evocare	These bugs are certainly valid targets for fixing during our regular publish cycle.
IanStorm	Are you planning to limit the number of items that can be insured?
Evocare	We’re not currently planning on limiting the insurance of “normal” magic items, although I’ve heard some pretty good arguments from time to time that propose limiting the number of artifacts a player can simultaneously insure. These ideas aren’t currently decided upon or scheduled for implementation, but they’re certainly possibilities for future balance changes.
